Denmarks Radix 2.0

And then there was the Danish summer camp. Famous for it’s hospitality, good food and nice

people. This year, 2025, it had grown to more than 120 enthusiastic Taekwon-Do practitioners.

Several countries attended: Greenland, Denmark, Sweden, England, and the Netherlands.

I am a regular guest in Denmark and for many attendees the Radix approach is well known. That's

why this year we could dig a little deeper into our curriculum. More variations, more complicated

situations and techniques and games were on the menu. There was room for improvisations and

partner drills were the main course. For adults, the main focus was on applications and tactics

against the most common initiating attacks, the pattern related techniques and principles that

help acquiring sound self-defence techniques. During the weekend the group progressed from

single technique approaches to more complicated and improvised tactics to solve dynamic self-

defence situations with one or several assaillants. Games framed the classes, which made

training fun and engaging. There were smiling faces all over the place, with here and there a

serious note.

With the junior group, I worked with Master Peter Logozar of Sweden. Together we addressed

escape drills, ground work, and mount counters. All in a playful manner, but with serious intent.

The kids worked hard and focussed in a high-energy, fun class. It was a great group to train with.

Working up a serious sweat, they learned about basic safety skills once on the floor, while being

attacked and safely escaping—using skills they didn’t know they already had.

The Radix approach is rooting in Denmark

Looking forward to the next visit…

Stay safe, Master Robert
